Just to give you guys/gals an update. I’m now able to run 120+ fps on the new rig.
Technically it is now able to run at 200+ FPS but I just enabled the frame limit to 120 FPS on RivaTuner
My New Rig specs are as follows:
Intel i9-14900K (I Undervolted to an offset of 0.1v, PL1=125w and PL2=253w, 307A limit) for reliability and stability
MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk Max WIFI DDR5 with the latest BIOS update
Corsair Vengeance 32 GB DDR5 7200 RAM
Arctic cooler Liquid Freezer 360 III w/ upgraded P12 MAX fans
Cruicial 2 TB M.2 NVME
450 GB SATA 3 SSD
Corsair RM1200x PSU
ASUS RTX 4080 OC Edition (Undervolted to 0.940v at 2805 MHZ clock)
Lian Li Lancool 216 Black version
Windows 10 Pro
Overall, it runs pretty good and stable. Getting a Cinebench R23 score of 41K when on Extreme tuned @ 300W, but at the current default tune, it runs pretty cool and stable temps at 76c with an average score of 34k. For reliability and longevity it’s Pretty good so far.
Happy Flying!
As this is the BMS forum, why not run the one test in BMS designed to show FPS, the TE_BMS_00_Benchmark_Test TE (Under Tactical Engagement [SAVED]). Takes just a minute, this is 2560x1440 taken starting in Taxi… Even with this there can be variables in Nvidia settings, game settings, etc. but at least its a BMS Benchmark…
Thanks Icer, appreciate it. I ran the test just now, and I’m getting a fixed rate of 120 FPS as I have SET a LIMIT on my FPS using RIVATuner only to 120 FPS. I KNOW I could run MORE FPS, but i’m HAPPY with my current OC settings for the CPU and GPU, as I have undervolted my GPU to run at 0.940v @ 2790 Mhz, and also undervolted my CPU to 0.1v offset and PL1=125w, and PL2=253w, with a 307Amp default. The i9-14900K runs very stable at these settings on the MSI MAG motherboard.
I know about the variables in BMS being that different variations on the campaign plus the weather may tend to provide different FPS for different hardware specs. But I just wanted to get a basis and a reference before justifying pulling the trigger on a NEW RIG.
During the time when I had my OLD RIG, the tests that I previously had with the i7-4790 was really bottleneck. It just couldn’t keep up. It was still smooth 50-60FPS was okay, but I wanted more FPS (at least 120) hence why I asked the people in the forum for those who have a HIGH spec RIG what kind of FPS they were getting.
From there I could concluded that BMS wasn’t fully dependent on the GPU but was more on CPU, so even if i had the best GPU, it would still rely on the CPU to fully benefit the HIGH FPS.
Of course I was doing more tests on my OLD RIG before pulling the trigger cause it does COST quite a lot of $$$$ to spend on a NEW RIG upgrade if I could still push the i7-4790. Mortgage is more important than a new GAMING PC you know. hahaha.
Nevertheless I was able to find some GREAT deals on the parts, and was able to piece together my RIG and finally built it and get it running the way I expected it.
Right now i’m VERY happy with the performance of the new RIG. no regrets spending a bit to upgrade, after 15 years.
For now, the FPS limit of 120FPS is my sweet spot. So happy with that. Not willing to PUSH to Extreme to shorten the life of the CPU and GPU.
And I know that variables may affect that FPS, and even if it goes down from 120 to 80 FPS due to BMS variables, I’m still happy with it. Will still have a smooth experience.
